Higher and Faster covers every aspect of boat handling for asymetric dinghies. Top 49er sailors Alistair Richardson and Peter Greenhalgh not only talk you through each move but show you step by step as well. Alistair and Peter are renowned for their excellent boat handling so this is a unique opportunity to learn from some of the best in the business.

The footage is narrated and produced by top asymetic coach Harvey Hilary who explains each skill by breaking it down into simple steps so that you end up learning not only what to do but why. There is also a genie who helps dispel the black magic traditionally associated with explaining apparent wind sailing and handling a high performance asymetric dinghy.

The DVD is organised into sections as set out below. You can either watch the film in one hit or use the menu navigation to chack out a particular aspect. This means that you can use the film for training/ guidance by jumping straight to the skill you are struggling with for a quick refresher.
